Chapter 317: Mongol Onslaught
I saw arrows flying towards the city wall like a torrential rain, even if some of them accidentally injured their own people, they did not hesitate to do so.
And those warriors who stepped on the night to attack the city let out all kinds of roars, as if they were wolves howling in the middle of the night. It makes people frightened and frightened.
Zhong Taojiao, who was originally asleep, was also awakened, jumped up and said, "What's the matter?" ”
Xiao Yao's face was solemn, and he replied: "It seems that Mongolia sees that we are weak and is going to attack with all its might!" Mingzhu, be careful, I'll help first! ”
"I'll go too!"
Zhong Taojiao also turned grim, and followed with a knife.
Gu Fanghua saw that at the stairs, Gu Shinian commanded a large number of people, rushing up in an orderly manner, and everyone went to their own position to support.
But apart from the corpses, there were no soldiers who were willing to retreat and rest.
Gu Fanghua and Yan Changxin glanced at each other and sat down silently. In less than a moment, Yan Changxin stood up again: "Mingzhu, I'll go back and prepare some meals for you, Jiaojiao will be hungry in a while." ”
"Okay, remember to get more good food."
Gu Fanghua smiled and waved her hand, and watched Yan Changxin go down the city tower, pretending not to see the worry in his eyes, as well as distressed and anxious tears.
Yan Shaoxun was originally asleep, but he was also awakened by this war drum, and hurriedly got up and changed his clothes and came to the city wall. saw that the fight was even more tragic, and Gu Fanghua was sitting alone in the corner.
"What's going on? Why are the war drums and trumpets suddenly sounding? ”
Gu Fanghua put his hands into his sleeves and pretended to be calm: "It may be that the grassland coalition army saw that we were tired and wanted to boost morale and take the opportunity to attack at night." ”
"What about our drums? Knock on it too! ”
"That's right! What about our drums? ”
Gu Fanghua came to the spirit, she was also anxious when she sat there, it was better to find something to do.
Father-in-law Qian sighed secretly and said, "County Lord, the fifth prince is here, you go back and rest first." With General Xiao here, it's fine. ”
"No, Father-in-law Qian, you see that our people are obviously struggling, I can't leave, I want to boost morale!"
Gu Fanghua's stubbornness, and Father-in-law Qian are also helpless, but they also know that the situation is urgent now. In just one cup of tea, I saw that the reinforcements were continuous, and they had come up three times, but they had not replaced a living person.
"The Great Zhou War Drums are on top of this, County Lord, you can't go up."
Father-in-law Qian couldn't, so he had to point to the highest part of the city wall, where a platform protruded, on which was placed a war drum that was four feet long.
Yan Shaoxun's ears kept hearing all kinds of fighting, screaming in pain, and wailing, and his scalp was numb when he heard them. The most bizarre thing was that the blood on the city wall suddenly increased, slowly squirming and flowing to this side.
"I'm coming!"
Such a scene of flesh and blood flying and the sound of killing shook the sky deeply stimulated Yan Shaoxun. This immersive reality is incomparable to even a seven-D movie.
Let Yan Shaoxun spontaneously have a sense of pride, no wonder: if you don't go to the Great Wall, you are not a hero, and if you don't enter the barracks, you are not a man!
Father-in-law Qian looked at Yan Shaoxun, with a hint of admiration on his face.
The guide said: "Fifth prince, you go up that staircase, be careful that the snow is a little slippery." The drumsticks are on the shelf, and when they are beaten, let the dark guards stand by to prevent the dark arrows from hurting people. ”
"Okay, Gao Qin, Gao Chu, protect me."
Yan Shaoxun untied it, threw the black fox on his body casually on the chair, and turned his head to Gu Fanghua with a smile. Said proudly: "Pearl! Let you see what it is for a man to be self-reliant! ”
Yan Shaoxun at this moment was too dazzling, and that bright smile was inevitably touched in Gu Fanghua's heart when he recalled it many years later.
I saw Yan Shaoxun go up to the platform with the help of Gao Qin, and then take down the two drumsticks.
Well, at least one weighs five pounds, right?
Yan Shaoxun moved his arm, then picked it up vigorously, and smashed the drumstick into the war drum hard. The heavy drum sound unique to the Great Zhou War Drums vibrated and suppressed the sound of trumpets and drums from far away in Mongolia.
Gao Qin and Gao Chu guarded the side, picking off a few arrows from time to time, and the arrows shot by the Mongols with heavy crossbows ensured that Yan Shaoxun was safe and sound.
Yan Shaoxun became more and more passionate, and the national pride hidden in his body, as well as his blood, were all boiling.
He remembered an old song and couldn't help but sing:
"Proud and arrogant
Warm blood is better than red sunshine
The courage is like iron, and the bones are like steel
Thousands of minds and long visions
Vow to work hard and strive to be a good man
Be a good man and be self-reliant every day
The hot-blooded man is hotter than the red sun
Let Haitian gather energy for me
Go and break new ground for my ideals
Look at the blue sky and the vastness
That is, men should be self-reliant
Stand tall and be the pillars of everyone
Be a good man
Use my 100 points of heat to shine a thousand points of light"
The strong and majestic drumming, coupled with Yan Shaoxun's passionate singing, the entire Shanhaiguan seemed to be ignited by blood.
Every soldier seems to have forgotten the cold, the tiredness, and the fear, and they only have the enemy in their eyes and the courage to kill the enemy in their minds.
This counterattack on the momentum of the Great Zhou Dynasty crushed the momentum that Mongolia had created before.
Gu Fanghua looked up at Yan Shaoxun, the resentment in his heart gradually dissipated, and the rights and wrongs of the previous life were buried. Yan Shaoxun is still a man.
The tide-like attack was hit back by the waves. Such a tragic war was fought until the light of day, and it was still in a state of stalemate.
Yan Changxin put the casserole on the stove, waited for Zhong Taojiao and didn't come back, so he had to go to the city wall in person and drag the Zhong family brothers and sisters back to rest.
The city walls were already full of corpses, and they could not be transported.
Weiyuan Hou Xiao Jing's eyes were blood-red, his legs were soft, and his hands couldn't be lifted a little, so he leaned on the arrow stack to rest.
Gu Shinian also didn't sleep all night, so he walked over and whispered to Weiyuanhou: "General Xiao, more than 10,000 people came last night, and less than 1,000 went back. ”
Xiao Jing's expression was gloomy: "I am a good man of 10,000 Great Zhou, and I have sacrificed my life for the country again." ”
Gu Shinian thought that Xiao Jing had just lost his son and experienced a night of hard fighting, so he persuaded: "General Xiao, go and rest, General Xiao Lei has come up, with him, you can go down and rest for a while." ”
Xiao Jing turned his head to look at the grassland coalition forces that were still going forward one after another, and said hatefully: "I can't rest, now this Shanhaiguan is in danger, and I have to fight until the last moment." ”
Gu Shinian really couldn't persuade him, and he didn't persuade him again, he still wanted to see how Mingzhu and the others were.
In this corner, the Zhong brothers and sisters were gobbling up, eating the fragrant ham in the casserole, and Yan Shaoxun was drooling next to him but couldn't fight.
It turned out that he had been playing the drums for too long last night, and he had been singing all the time, but now not only did his voice be hoarse, but his arms were like they were filled with lead, and he couldn't lift them up at all.
Gu Fanghua smiled, scooped a bowl of soup with a lot of ham and winter bamboo shoots, and handed it to Xiao Yuanzi.
"Go feed the five princes."
Xiao Yuanzi came over with a smile, Yan Shaoxun was very happy, and said with a smile: "Mingzhu, it would be better if you came to feed it." ”
